The Get Up Kids‘ classic 1999 album Something To Write Home About turns 25 this year, and the band is celebrating with an expanded reissue and a tour, and for the occasion, co-leaders Matt Pryor and Jim Suptic joined us on the BrooklynVegan podcast for an hour-long reflection on the album. They reminisced about how they evolved from their very humble beginnings and their 1997 debut album Four Minute Mile into the band that wrote one of the most influential emo albums of all time just two years later, the label feeding frenzy that followed Four Minute Mile‘s success and the decision to go with then-little-known label Vagrant, the longer demoing process that helped make Something To Write Home About a much more refined album than its predecessor (and that’s being immortalized with the second disc of demos included with this new reissue), their headlining STWHA tour with openers At the Drive-In, their 2001 support tours for Green Day and Weezer, the mainstream emo boom that Something To Write Home About heavily inspired and that The Get Up Kids moved away from with 2002’s On A Wire, and more.

Cal In Red are a new-ish indie pop duo from Michigan (made up of brothers Connor and Kendall Wright), and they’re releasing their debut album Low Low on August 30 via B3SCI Records (pre-order). The project grew out of the brothers’ previous band Mertle, and it was during that band’s run that they initially caught the attention of The Shins. Mertle won The Shins’ 2017 Van Contest with a cover of “Painting A Hole,” and now Shins leader James Mercer lent his voice to Cal In Red’s new single , “Kitchen.” It’s a breezy, sunny indie pop song that’s cut from a similar cloth as early Shins, and it’s easy to picture fans of that band getting down with this one.

Maybe it was the impending full moon. Or the heat or the political churn of July — or just the high octane energy of the bands performing (probably that) — but the crowd at White Eagle Hall on Saturday night for Amyl and the Sniffers were ready to go bananas and did so right from the get-go. It certainly helps that Amyl and the Sniffers’ bandleader Amy Taylor is part Gremlin and part punk rock aerobics instructor and was bouncing off the walls, dancing, throwing shapes, whipping her hair around, sticking out her tongue and generally going as crazy as the roiling pit that she inspired.

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds. I recently mentioned this phenomenon to a fentanyl user who told me about the xylazine connection.
